The ups and downs of the past few days of Claire's life:

• I walked into work yesterday to find someone had left a lightsaber on my desk - Yay!


• Tried to renew my firewall subscription at Symantec and got charged for something that. Just. Isn't. Working. - Boo!


• Found the face of Jesus in my hot chocolate today - Yay!


• Have a stotting headache and feel like I'm going to throw up every time I move - Boo!


• Am having fun with Mag7 South Park characters - Yay!


• Felt so bad earlier, I couldn't get another part done for today - Boo!


• Have the next two days off work - Yay!


• Didn't find a unclaimed bundle of £50 notes in the street - Boo!


• Men With Brooms arrived on DVD - Yay!


• David Hewlett didn't turn up on my doorstep carrying porn and chocolate - Boo!


• My Amazon order got posted today - Yay!


• Got spoiled for a major thing in CSI: Miami that I didn't want to know - Boo!


• Bought loads of stuff from Lush - Yay!


• None of it's for me - Boo!


• Can have a long lie-in in the morning - Yay!


• Still haven't sent off some people's Christmas presents - Boo!

So, all in all, a pretty uppy-downy kind of few days. Although, admittedly, more of the uppy. (Yay!)

Also, alyse and davechicken, are you guys still up for meeting on Sunday?

*has been pestering reminding alyse to email you*


*aims her link*


*nods*

[alyse]

Yes. But I suck and therefore haven't responded.

11am or midday, right? davechicken reckons she can get up early, so we'd better make it midday. ::veg::

Anywhere in particular?

*bites*

Hey, you haven't seen me do early. When I'm in Gilesgate I have such a small sleeping pattern that I go to bed when El does and wake when Jen does and... wait, do I actually sleep?

*eg*

*looks snooty*

How about under the clock at Central Station? That way we can branch out from there. (Or, get as far as the Starbucks and buy coffee *grin*)

That sounds fine to me :)

See you tomorrow!

Indeedy :-D

Oh, and is this a bad time to tell you that davechicken and I found Men With Brooms in the Metrocentre for £1.97 last weekend? The Music Zone, I think. Region 2, I presume.

Yes, I have it too. But just in case anyone else wants a copy that you know of :)

*pout* I got it for £5.99 from Play. Oh well.

Found the face of Jesus in my hot chocolate today - Yay!

...o_O hot chocolate from the machine?

[moonlettuce.livejournal.com]

Kind of. The machine was playing up yesterday so it gave me a cup of frothy milky water instead of chocolate, so I tipped some chocolate powder in there. And lo! When I tipped, the face of Jesus was there. I even have witnesses. (Although one of them reckons it was actually the face of E.T.) We were going to take a photo, but he sank before we could get the camera phone there. Poor drowning Jesuses make the baby Jesus cry for a life jacket.

[blackbeltbarbie.livejournal.com]

The machine is still doing that?! I left a post it note saying there was a problem on Tuesday and the bastards still haven't fixed it?! I knew I should have emailed but figured the machine lady was due to visit and a note would be quicker. And you still drank it?!?!?

Wow. Jesus drowing in hot chocolate at Easter... there's a message in there somewhere;)

[moonlettuce.livejournal.com]

It was giving out proper hot chocolate by lunch time, it was just the first one of the day that was dodgy. Dodgy, but apparently very holy *grin*

poke me next time i'm home & we will set up zonealarm or kerio on your machine, much better (IMHO) & freeee... & AVG antivirus which is much cool & also free :)

actually, you could probably do ZA & AVG yourself, they are pretty simple to set up. kerio firewall is a bit of a pain to set up, it took me a week of web searching to work out how to do it but once it's up, you can pretty much just leave it.

[moonlettuce.livejournal.com]

Well, the Norton FW sub doesn't expire until July, but I also buy ahead. My own fault for not putting things off I suppose *g*

[temaris.livejournal.com]

I like ZA and AVG -- not so much of a bobble since I put them in place a year or so back. Silly Claire. *pokes*
